I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn't with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.

David’s Run It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different elementary schools in and around the small town of 100-Mile House, British Columbia, were warming up and walking the route through thick evergreen forest. In the five years I had been teaching at Horse Lake Elementary School, I had come to respect the tough pioneer spirit of the local people. Named for its location 100 miles from Lillooet, (mile zero on the old Cariboo Gold Rush Trail), and dotted with active cattle ranches, 100-Mile House sometimes seemed like a place out of time, with its horses, cowboys and cattle drives. At an elevation of 930 metres, 100-Mile House is a community in which spring comes late, snow comes early and winter sports are a local passion.

It was now late May and the ground had only just dried enough from the melting snow to hold the race. I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old, with freckles and unruly red hair. But his His usual big toothy grin smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. The only response he gave me was He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run. What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!

I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach physical education teacher and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that worried the other kids from other schools would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably. “I thought there might be a fight if our kids tried to defend him. I gave him the choice to run or not, and let him decide.”   I bit back my frustration. I knew the coach meant well and sincerely — he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that being assured David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward, awkwardly walking on his toes.

David’s cerebral palsy David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his peers classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. Which is That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer, that’s all. David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run long after the other children—he did always finish. He had stubbornly run a total of twenty-three kilometres in practice runs to prepare for that day’s two-and-a-half-kilometre (1.5-mile) run, and he had asked me to come and watch. As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination dogged determination.

We sat down next to each other together on some steps, but David wouldn’t look at me. I quietly said, “David, if you don’t want to run today, no one is going to make you. But if you’re not running because you’re afraid someone is going to laugh, that’s not a good enough reason. There will always be someone who will laugh and say mean things. There are people like that, and that’s just the way it is. The real question is whether you are going to let those few people stop you from doing something you really want to do. Are you going to let them get in your way? If you really want to run, David, then you run!”

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. I held my breath as David took this in. Then he looked at the field and said with a fierce but quiet determination, “I’m gonna run.”   I watched stood on the sidelines with the excited crowd as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. The starter’s gun sounded, and David lurched forward with the other children. But he had only gone a few metres before he tripped and fell flat on the ground. My heart sank. As I started to shout encouragement, other voices around me took up the call. “Come on David, you can do it!” I knew without even looking that these voices were not just those of his schoolmates. They came from parents, teachers and kids from other schools, who quickly understood the courage it took David to attempt this run.

David picked himself up and started again. All the other runners had disappeared over the hill. But it didn’t matter. This was David’s run. He had worked for it, and he wouldn’t give up! As long as he was in sight, David heard people calling his name.   I waited anxiously by the finish line as the first runners completed the two-and-a-half kilometres of forest trails. Soon all of the other runners had come in and another race had begun. Still no David! I started to feel sick. Had I done the wrong thing? He hadn’t checked out the trail with the other runners. Could he have become lost? Finally, a small figure emerged from the forest. With heels kicking out to the side and his body rocking with the rhythm of his run, David plodded toward the home stretch. He raised his arms in triumph as he crossed the finish line to wild cheers and applause.

Then, when David’s coach slapped him on the back and said proudly, “Good job, David!” he caught my eye, flashed me a toothy grin and said, “That was easy!”   At the end of the year, the track coach asked the class to nominate one of their classmates for the athletic award for their grade. Without hesitation the whole class voted for David, saying that no one had worked harder for that award than he.   It was an amazing moment at our year-end assembly. The auditorium resounded with cheering and applause when David came forward and received his award for outstanding athletic achievement—from his beaming coach.

范文01
We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn’t look at me. Gently guiding him into my arms, I looked right into his eyes, where tears welled up. I dried them up with my fingers, saying comfortingly. “Don’t give up. Believe in yourself. You have been practising so much and so well. And the school’s coach doesn’t mean anything bad. He’s just waiting for you to make a choice. Actually, we’re proud of your determination and now it’s time to show it to all.” Hearing my words, he nodded his head, looking reborn with being trusted. “I won’t let you down!” he said clearly.
范文01
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. His size was indeed comparatively too small for his age. But strange enough, he looked like a great hero with endless power. At the sound of the signal gunshot, everyone including David sped forward. Though after a moment, he lagged behind others, he never stopped his firm and determined pace. He was never laughed at by runners from the other schools. Instead, when David finally crossed the finish line, many strangers gathered around him and cheered for him, “Well done, David!” This time, I looked into his eyes, where pride and honor shone brightly.
范文02
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Staring at his shoes stiffly, David sat silently with his one hand rubbing the other. “I know you want the run" I put my palm on his back, patted with patience and persuaded him. “I saw you practice so hard for it and I believe you could do it!” Hearing my confirmation, David beamed with pleasure and stumbled towards the starting line.
范文02
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. My frustration was replaced by satisfaction. “On your mark!” Every runner was in his position and then rushed forward like a flash after hearing the starting pistol. Only David was left far behind. However, he spared no effort to catch up with the others drops of sweat streaming down his cheeks showing no sign of giving up. Ten minutes later than the last runner David reached the finishing line and all the students cheered up for him “That's my boy!" The coach came closer and proudly claimed. David showed his usual big toothy smile.
范文03
We sat down next to each other, but David wouldn't look at me. Silently, he just stared at the other participants who were warming up without saying anything. I decided to infuse some courage into this tough boy, but I couldn't find a way out. When I saw a cocoon on the tree beside us, a brilliant idea occurred to me. I pointed the cocoon to him and asked him softly, "do you know what it would be like in the future?" "No." he answered casually. "I guess nobody would know if the caterpillar is not willing to give a shot on itself." Finally, he turned his head to me with determination in his eyes.
范文03
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. I was so delighted that my words worked and I prayed for this boy from the bottom of my heart. With the starting gun sounding, the runners were off. Following his team members, David finished the whole run and got a good ranking, which surprised all of us including his coach and the runners from the other schools. Everyone was so moved by David’s spirit that they gathered around David and throw him in the air. At that moment, I saw a brave butterfly flying in him.
范文04
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Worried about him, I could not restrain myself from thinking why did he not choose to run. What if others look down upon him because he is an exception? At that time, I knew I had better cheer him up. I put his hand in mine, saying in an encouraging voice, “David you can run as fast as others, why not give it your best shot?” Hearing my words, David raised his head in disbelief and held my hands tightly. With his usual big toothy smile coming back, he nodded in determination. “Thank you, Madam! I will not give up.”
范文04
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. All runners darted off as soon as they heard the shot from the starting pistol. Seeing his small figure disappearing into thick evergreen forest, I felt relieved. But what happened next was pure magic--David was not the last one to finish the race, but the 1 stone. I gathered him in my arms telling him in front of everyone that I am really proud of him. He made a miracle. As his teacher, I felt lucky to witness the unexpected growth of my student.
范文05
We sat down next to each other, but David would not look at me. Deciding to share with him my own story, I told him that when was a kid, I had trouble talking with others due to my terrible stutter and shied away from any public speaking. With tears in my eyes, I recollected my painful yet inspiring experiences about how I had triumphed over my fear of speaking and ended up becoming a teacher. Upon hearing this, David was quite engaged and told me that he could empathize with me and would follow in my footsteps.
范文05
Then, I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. As expected, things didn't go well when David stumbled again and again and lagged far behind other students throughout the run. However, he bit the bullet and toughed it out. With dogged determination and grit he crossed the finishing line. Even though he did not pull off any prize, he triumphed over his fear and boosted his self-efficacy. To quote Roosevelt the only thing we have to fear is fear itself.  
范文06
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. “You are no different than anybody else is." I said. But he still refused to look at me, his head buried in his arms with a whispered “no” huddling like a wounded cat. Silent for a moment, I tapped him on the shoulder. “Well, you are right. You are indeed different from others." As he began to sob slightly, I smiled. “You wear your toothy smile on your face every day; you can always make the best of everything you are doing, stick to it and never give up. That’s amazing. Spill the beans. You are not an ordinary 10-year-old boy" He slowly raised his head and looked at me, doubt in his eyes. But I could see his confidence regained. “Come on, the run is about to begin. Just do as usual."
范文06
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. As the shots of the race rang out everyone just rushed forward, only a small thin body was staggering behind. But as usual he didn’t give up. He clenched his teeth and swung his legs with all the strength, leaves crunching beneath the tiny feet. As David approached the finish line, what surrounded him was not ridicule but constant encouragement. “You can do it!" The runners clapped and yelled. In the cheer and applause, David crossed the finish line finally along with the most familiar but unforgettable thing-a usual big toothy smile on his sweaty face.
范文07
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Seeing his face filled with anxiety, I felt sad deciding to talk something with him. Turning to David, I smiled, “David. Look what a wonderful event!” “Yeah!" David smiled weakly, bowing his head. Patting on his shoulder, I said in a soft voice, “I heard you had worked so hard for this event. How I admire your strong determination. Why not give it a try?” “Teacher, I am afraid kids from other schools will laugh at me. I think what the coach said is right." murmured David with glum looks on his face. “But David, what counts most is to participate to the best of your ability in whatever were doing. Do you agree?" After a temporary hesitation, David nodded in agreement, finally deciding to join in the cross-country team.
范文07
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. With a blast of the gun, David tried his best to shoot from the start line, but he failed. Painful and a bit embarrassed as he was, he still dragged his feet to keep moving forward. The sun was beating down, the hot weather suffocating. After what seemed years, David rocking his small body like a cat on a hot brick eventually finished his run as the last one. When approaching the finish line, he burst into a big toothy smile and waved to me with excitement crying. “I made it!! made it!” All the kids including those from other schools erupted into a big applause, cheering for his determination and persistence. At that moment, a flush of admiration and joy swept over me.
范文08
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. His mouth pouting as though he was determined not to cry. “My boy, can you tell me your true thought?" I put my hand on his shoulder. He sniffled quietly, tears threatening to spill from his eyes. After numbing there for seconds, he choked: “I am bound to lose. They will laugh at me in my silly running form.” “You have already poured your sweat, your blood, and your heart into this game. Never forget why you started." I patted his shoulder gently. “You need to show them who you are. I have faith in you." Hearing this, he wiped the tears off and walked arduously towards the starting line step by step.
范文08
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. He took a deep breath and blew on his hands. The eyes of the audience were fixed on him. So restless was he that he began to tremble all over. The competition began. All the contestants darted away except David. He dragged his feet with all his might. As time went by, the audiences were touched by his perseverance deeply and applauded warmly. David ended up with the last place in this race but nobody poured ridicule on him. Instead, everyone cheered on him lustily. I dashed toward David and gave him a hug: “You made it! I am so proud of you!" David wore a shining smile on his face and whispered: “Thank you very much, sir. You have taught me the most significant lesson of my life-don’t forget why we started."
范文09
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. “You want to join them, don’t you?" I whispered to him, trying to break the silence first. Hearing what I said, he raised his head slowly, looked into my eyes and attempted to say something but failed. Patting him on the shoulder gently, I continued. “Anyone who always participates to his best deserves to have a try for himself" This time, he nodded his head firmly, with his usual big toothy smile spreading across his face again.
范文09
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. As the gun cracked with all his strength, David swung his feet forward as fast as he could. However, it did not take long for him to fall behind others. Time wearing on when some students became too exhausted to move forward, David kept stumbling forward at his unique pace, thus enabling him to pass several participants in the end. Hardly had he crossed the finishing line when I rushed to gather him in my arms shouting “Great job! I know you could make it!" Still gasping for air, he choked, “Thank you! This is the first time that I have not finished last!"
范文10
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. I knew that deep down in his heart he was eager to run. It was the coach’s “thoughtfulness” that had made him shrink back. I asked, “You trained really hard. Are you giving up now?” He answered with a weak smile, “But they may laugh at me.” “Nobody is going to laugh at you my dear boy. Even if some of them do, don’t let them stop you." I looked into his eyes, stroking his head. He stood up and declared his strong determination, “I will run!”
范文10
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. All his classmates cheered for him, and I could see him beaming back. As the run started and David began swinging his feet forward, everybody could clearly see that he was not a regular kid. He soon fell behind, while other runners raced through the forest. Everyone including the kids and parents from the other schools, shouted encouragement to him. Finally, he made it to the finish line! The audience broke into thunderous applause. I rushed to give him a bear hug, happy to see his big toothy smile again.
范文11
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. It was I who first broke the silence. “Why don’t you choose to run?” I asked in an enquiring voice. Hearing my words, David felt shameful as his cheeks flushed. He explained that he understood what his coach did was to protect him from being teased by kids from other school, which was his choice, too. However, I stressed that the big cross-country run was the competition of a long-term endeavor that he had been applying so he should not let others’ laughter prevent him from doing what he really desired to do. After hearing my encouraging speech, David lifted his head and raised his eyes, casting me a determined look - the kind that said he would run for himself.
范文11
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. In no time, they were on their mark. All the other participants rushed out like an arrow the moment the starters gun sounded. Slowly as David began the race, he kept running on. At the sprint moment, tripped by his feet, David suddenly fell down onto the ground. Fortunately, David stood up on his feet quickly with the cheers of encouragement not only from his schoolmates but from other school kids. Without hesitation, he pressed forward. Eventually, David finished the run amid tremendous applause, with his big toothy smile shining like a diamond. It was his determination and others’ kindness that was what it took to conquer his fear and accomplish his goal.
范文12
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Frustrated and confused, he struggled to tell me his decision. “I will not run.” while rubbing his head to offer a touch of comfort, I said. “David, some unfair prejudice may come from some people. But there are definitely others, who will hold a different opinion. They will be pleased and proud of you. The most important thing lies in insisting on whatever is right and whatever you truly want to do.” After keeping silent for a moment, David eventually gave a nod of understanding. “Thank you, my dear teacher. I really want to run and I will not drop out just because of being possibly laughed at.” Then, wearing his usual toothy smile, he participated in the match.
范文12
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. With the starting gun sounded, all the runners ran as fast as they could. Although David had tried his best, he still lagged behind shortly after the beginning of the match. Worse still, he fell over out of a sudden. A loud cry of “come on” came from most audiences, which gave him great strength. He immediately jumped to his feet to continue the run. I never hesitated to believe that David could finish his run. He is a “man” of great diligence, bravery and determination. By the finish line, there was a crowd of people waiting anxiously. Being one of them, I held my breath to wait for David. Soon the first runner turned up, followed by the second, and all the other runners except David. Just when I was worrying whether something dangerous had happened to him, he appeared with a slow but steady pace. Everyone present was enthusiastically applauding for him.
范文13
We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Looking at his drooping head, which showed no sign of happiness, I knew it is time for me to say something. “Don’t be afraid that the kids from other schools would laugh at you. Just trust yourself! Having practiced so much, you can also do what others do.” I uttered comfortably. After hearing my words, David raised his head and looked at me with his teary eyes, stammering in a low voice, “Can ... can I run? What if they laugh at me?” “YES! You can run if you want! Don’t care what others think!” I replied in a determined tone. All of a sudden, I saw the sparkle in his eyes and meanwhile, I heard “I will run!”

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. As the gunshot rang out, all the players, except David, dashed forward. David swung his feet forward slowly with his small body rocking side to side, but nobody laughed at him. Instead, everyone exclaimed in chorus, “Come on, David! You can do it!”  They seemingly understood how tough it was for David to run and how determined he was to accomplish the run. With the encouragement and the strong will, David eventually made it! Small as he was for his age, I clearly saw his usual big toothy smile emerging at that time. Only then did I realize that it was strong determination that could conquer whatever difficulty came in the way.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Even before I said anything, he began to sob, hiding his face in his hands. I gave him an encouraging pat on the shoulder, saying gently, “Every time you try your best to challenge yourself, your big toothy smile seems to light up the whole world. I can understand your anxiety, but the brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. You always cherish every chance to practise and we are all proud of your confidence and strong will. Believe in yourself and just go for it!” Wiping tears from his face, David stood up and hugged me tightly, “Thank you for your consideration.”

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. I was extremely delighted to see that he wore a shining smile on his face again. On hearing the sound of the signal gunshot, David struggled to sprint for the finish line. The route seemed like a long journey for such a small boy with a brain disease. However, he kept running without hesitation, despite the fact that others were far ahead. When the small figure finally crossed the finish line, all the audience broke into warm cheers for him instead of laughing at him. It was the moment that he shone like a diamond. In my mind, he was the great hero who never gave up.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. Worried and anxious, I patted his back with a soft voice: "Its not your fault, you can make your dream come true as long as you follow your heart. What your coach said is just his idea. However, you can make a difference." Hearing what I said, David raised his head slowly. His face full of tears, his eyes were filled with determination. "Ill try!" he said in a determined voice and moved up without hesitation.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. Young and thin as he was, I considered David as a big and tough man at the moment. Suddenly, he turned back and waved towards me with a big smile, I answered back with a wave, thinking: "he will finally win". Several minutes later, the running began. With determined faith, David ran with all his strength. Finally, the match is over. No sooner had he finished the run then he ran to me and hugged me. "Thank you. I made it!"

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. He clasped his hand on his lap uneasily with his head lowered down. Patting his shoulder gently, I asked him why he chose not to participated in the run. “ I am always the last one,” David answered in frustration. “ I am afraid kids from other schools would laugh at me.” “But you did always finish every practice.” I said in an assuring tone. “Your determination far overweighs the race result. Come on, my boy!” A surge of confidence showed up on his face. He rose up like a courageous soldier. After expressing thanks for my encouragement, he swung lightly toward the preparation area for the run.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. Although his small body rocked from side to side, he was really shining brightly among the runners. As usual, David finished the run long after other runners. Waiting with other children for him at the finishing line gave me a strong feeling of achievements. The moment he arrived, the crowd burst into rounds of spontaneous cheers and applause. He did made it! David smiled! The familiar big toothy smile enlightened and warmed the whole forest.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. “David,” I talked to him softly, “it’s ok if you want to be an audience this time, though I find it a little bit disappointed that I couldn’t see you run with other kids since you’ve been working so hard in your practices.” David lowered his head, “Sorry, Mr. Lee,” saying in a trembling voice, “but I am afraid that other kids would laugh at me.” “You are the most determined person I’ve ever seen, never giving up anything because of other people’s opinion. Do you think it is worth giving up this chance just because others may laugh at you and are you sure you won’t regret afterwards?” David raised his head looking at me with sparkles in his eyes, and said, firmly, “I will run.”

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. With the gun triggered, all the kids run forward like a swarm of happy bees. David, though falling behind of others, was trying his best to finish his run. Time flying by, kids started to run across the finish line. One, two, three, more and more kids has run across the finish line, but there was still a long way for David. Gradually, David had become the only kid who was still on the track, and the rest of us were all standing behind the finish line waiting for him. Suddenly, someone from the crowd began to call his name, “David! David!” Then everyone of us started to call it together, “David! David!” to give him strength. As David struggled to run across the finish line, the crowd burst into a sea of cheers. I saw David’s face glow with a proud smile, which was the happiest smile I have ever seen in my life.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. “David, you are an ambitious young man full of enthusiasm and vitality.” I held his hands tightly, “Just look at my eyes. Trust me!”David stood silently, tears rolling down his cheeks. “Miss, with the brain disease, I had thought I did not practise well enough to participate in the competition so that I am afraid of being laughed at.” David felt frustrated and hopeless. I was absolutely understanding what he felt in his mind. “Boy, you have done well and your future is very promising.”David looked at me, with his eyes twinkled with excitement, and stood up just like a superman in front of me.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. As the bell rang, David ran as fast as he could like a wild horse running in the filed. In the first round, David fell behind others about 5 meters. But Bathed in a competitive atmosphere, he was in high spirits and felt a sudden strength inside him. In the last 50 meters, seeing David try his best to rush for the finishing line, I was nervous and had my heart in my mouth. When the host announced that David won the 3d prize, he was wild with delight, waving to me with joy and sweetness.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. He buried his head into his arms and couldn’t help sobbing. “Come on, you can do it.” I whispered to her in a soft voice and patted his shoulder gently. “Really ?” he suddenly jumped to his feet and shouted in a trembling voice. His eyes were shining with hope. At that moment, I showed the photo in my cellphone with her. In the photo, he was running as fast as he could with all the other boys on the playground. The bright smiles, the loud cheers, the sweaty face as well as the determination to win victory suddenly crowded into his mind. Without hesitation, he wiped away the tears and struggled to his feet to embrace the challenge.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. I yelled with a sense of pride. In the distance, David was running as fast as his disabled leg could carry him. The gentle breeze and singing birds seem to cheer for him. Unfortunately, David tripped over by a stone. “Oh, my God!” I signed and hurried to him. To my surprise, my dear friend gritted his teeth, ignored the bleeding knee and gathered all his strength to stand up and dashed to the finishing line. “What a brave boy”! I signed and hugged him tightly with teary eyes.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. I asked him, “Why not run?”He stuttered, looking at the crowds, “I-I don’t know”. A few seconds later, several words came out of his mouth, “Maybe afraid of being laughed.” “But you have practiced so hard recently,”I blurt out, “Think about the efforts you have made. But of course, it’s your choice. Guess what? I don’t think it is a good reason. You know, there are always someone who don’t like us. The point is whether you want to do it yourself. Just think about it.” It was silence again between us. David was biting his mouth, looking at the distance again. A few minutes later, he stood up and uttered the words, “I would like to run.” I nodded smilingly. So, he has made up his mind.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. David began his running with the starting signal. I was a bit excited when suddenly a shadowy figure fell over. My heart sank. Seeing the small figure, I knew it was David. I ran to him and shouted, “Get up and run!” The audience around him were also calling, “Come on ! You can do it.”A few seconds later, he rose and ran again. He disappeared in the distance in no time. I went to the finishing line, waiting eagerly. When the first person crossed the line, lots of other runners finished their running. But no David. I was wondering what might have happened to him when the small shadowy figure appeared again in the distance. “Well done!” I said to myself. He was approaching the finishing line when I saw the mud in his clothes. He must have gone through a lot all the way. Crossing the line, his usual big smile was there as that sunny day.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. He just lowered his head, obviously in a low spirit. I caressed his head, comforting him gently. A short moment's silence, he burst out into tears, saying it was not his real choice not to participate in the cross-country run. His worry was that kids from other different schools would laugh at his awkward behavior. “So it's time to prove yourself. With your persistent practice, you can make it!” He looked at me trustfully. With my warm words and high five, he raised and headed forwards firmly.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. Signal rung out, the student athletes shot like arrows, except him. He swung his feet forward with great efforts. Strong determination and perseverance led him to finish the run as regular kids. Though arriving at the finishing line long behind others, David held his hands high with the gesture of “V”, winning applauses from the audience! Splendid smiles on his face bloomed just like flowers in summer. Indeed, I wish someday the challenges children in special schools would inspire them to be better persons.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. I patted his shoulder lightly and said, "David, you have worked hard for the event and you practised really well, so I believe you can fulfill this ambition.”Hearing my words, David sat still with a little hesitation. Seeing this scene, I took the chance to try to persuade him, “Don’t be afraid of being laughed at, just be yourself.” “Sir!” David said to me loudly with a firm tone. “I am ready to run!" Then he walked straight to the playground.

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. With the bell rang, everyone raced as fast as they could. About 15 minutes later, they finished their competition except David. Anxiously waiting, I finally spotted David who was heading for us.

We sat down next to each other but David wouldn't look at me. He lowered his head, rubbing his hands from time to time just like a child at a loss. I patted his shoulder and said sincerely:“You are always a brave and diligent boy and we are all proud of you. Just follow your heart.” Hearing the words, David turned around and looked me in the eye. It was that time that I could see the determination in his eyes. He collected himself, gazed at the field and stood up slowly,“I will run!”

I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners. As the referee whistled, David started the race with all his energy. Shortly afterwards, he was worn out and nearly slipped and fell on the ground. A flood of nervousness welled up in my heart and I shouted at the top of my lungs“Come on, David! You can do it!” Exhausted as he was, David carried on and finally finished the distance. With all the crowds cheered for him, his eyes twinkled with excitement. For David, he defeated the fear and became his own hero.

David’s Run It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different elementary schools in and around the small town of 100-Mile House, British Columbia, were warming up and walking the route through thick evergreen forest. In the five years I had been teaching at Horse Lake Elementary School, I had come to respect the tough pioneer spirit of the local people. Named for its location 100 miles from Lillooet, (mile zero on the old Cariboo Gold Rush Trail), and dotted with active cattle ranches, 100-Mile House sometimes seemed like a place out of time, with its horses, cowboys and cattle drives. At an elevation of 930 metres, 100-Mile House is a community in which spring comes late, snow comes early and winter sports are a local passion.

It was now late May and the ground had only just dried enough from the melting snow to hold the race. I looked around and finally spotted David, standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years old, with freckles and unruly red hair. But his usual big toothy grin was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t with the other children. The only response he gave me was he had decided not to run.   What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!   I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s physical education teacher and asked him what had happened. “I was worried the other kids would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably. “I thought there might be a fight if our kids tried to defend him. I gave him the choice to run or not, and let him decide.”

I bit back my frustration. I knew the coach meant well and sincerely thought he was doing the right thing. After being assured David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward, awkwardly walking on his toes.   David’s cerebral palsy prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his peers thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing. Which is why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer, that’s all. David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run long after the other children—he did always finish. He had stubbornly run a total of twenty-three kilometres in practice runs to prepare for that day’s two-and-a-half-kilometre (1.5-mile) run, and he had asked me to come and watch. As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his dogged determination.

We sat down together on some steps, but David wouldn’t look at me. I quietly said, “David, if you don’t want to run today, no one is going to make you. But if you’re not running because you’re afraid someone is going to laugh, that’s not a good enough reason. There will always be someone who will laugh and say mean things. There are people like that, and that’s just the way it is. The real question is whether you are going to let those few people stop you from doing something you really want to do. Are you going to let them get in your way? If you really want to run, David, then you run!”   I held my breath as David took this in. Then he looked at the field and said with a fierce but quiet determination, “I’m gonna run.”

I stood on the sidelines with the excited crowd as David moved up to the starting line. The starter’s gun sounded, and David lurched forward with the other children. But he had only gone a few metres before he tripped and fell flat on the ground. My heart sank. As I started to shout encouragement, other voices around me took up the call. “Come on David, you can do it!” I knew without even looking that these voices were not just those of his schoolmates. They came from parents, teachers and kids from other schools, who quickly understood the courage it took David to attempt this run.

David picked himself up and started again. All the other runners had disappeared over the hill. But it didn’t matter. This was David’s run. He had worked for it, and he wouldn’t give up! As long as he was in sight, David heard people calling his name.   I waited anxiously by the finish line as the first runners completed the two-and-a-half kilometres of forest trails. Soon all of the other runners had come in and another race had begun. Still no David! I started to feel sick. Had I done the wrong thing? He hadn’t checked out the trail with the other runners. Could he have become lost? Finally, a small figure emerged from the forest. With heels kicking out to the side and his body rocking with the rhythm of his run, David plodded toward the home stretch. He raised his arms in triumph as he crossed the finish line to wild cheers and applause.

Then, when David’s coach slapped him on the back and said proudly, “Good job, David!” he caught my eye, flashed me a toothy grin and said, “That was easy!”   At the end of the year, the track coach asked the class to nominate one of their classmates for the athletic award for their grade. Without hesitation the whole class voted for David, saying that no one had worked harder for that award than he.   It was an amazing moment at our year-end assembly. The auditorium resounded with cheering and applause when David came forward and received his award for outstanding athletic achievement—from his beaming coach.
